MT HB347

Repeals the existing statutory requirement (Section 87-6-414) that hunters wear hunter orange while big game hunting in Montana

Grants the Fish and Wildlife Commission new rulemaking authority to adopt rules regarding hunter orange or similarly visible clothing as a safety measure for hunters and those accompanying hunters

Removes the specific requirement that persons using dogs to track wounded game animals during general season must wear hunter orange

Shifts hunter orange requirements from a legislative mandate to discretionary commission regulation, allowing requirements to be adjusted through administrative rulemaking rather than statutory change
